Titanfall's hype is built off of the game's developer pedigree. It might as well be a sequel to Call of Duty. Its also an FPS which for all intent and purposes, is the "it" genre to be in right now. Infamous has its past games, and the fact its a sandbox game going for it right now....but then again what isn't a sandbox or sequel these days? Infamous is carried a lot more on it's own merit I think.

online multiplayer games needs an active community to play against or it isn't fun. titanfall will launch when xbox is less than 5M consoles sold so the most it could hope for at launch is ~2M; a very repectable attach rate. a far greater attach rate than i believe possible when guys like me (who won't buy an online only game) simply won't buy it. single player isn't th filler to me,.. multiplayer is the filler which on most games i don't touch. ...and as nearly all online game's communities go bust within a month or two of launch i absolutely believe titanfall's community will too fail soon after launch. ..and with it so does titanfalls sales legs. i said disappoint. i mean disappoint. |
Well yea, I meant across all platforms.
You have similar tastes to me. I feel like I am getting a gimped package if a game is totally dependant on multiplayer. Someone brought up a good point a few posts back. What is Titanfall going to be like with split fanbases amongst PC/360/XBO? Do they actually have connected servers? because so far MS has not had a single game that allowed crossplay in that manner. So if it doesn't then most might opt to get it on PC and 360 as more ppl are likely to have those versions. I had a similar case in store today. Mother was returning XBO versions of COD Ghost because her two sons want to still be able to play with their friends, whom won't be getting XBO. That could prove a big issue for Titanfall's staying power.

Destiny will be a bigger seller, mainly because it will be on playstation as well as xbox. |
ONLINE ONLY..............
| Mad55 said: Titanfall on xbox one is gonna kill infamous in sales in my opinion. It is a bit disappointing that it's multiplayer only, but most people who play call of duty and battlefield play it for the multiplayer first. |
True and of those people, they mostly still own 360s. Majority of players for Titanfall will be on 360.
OT, this doesn't surprise me, already more people own the PS4 so more game preorders and most people still own a 360 so if they buy Titanfall, they'll buy it on that, no matter how much MS want.
Hmm, pie.
Second Son will also have a PS4 bundle wich is bound to sell a lot. I cant wait for this game to come out need to play it now. Titanfall is a shooter tough and therefore itll get above 9 reviews regardless of quality (not saying tis gona be bad, but you guys know this is a fact) and sell like theres no tomorrow.
Titanfall is multiplayer only which is a huge handicap. Also, Xbone install base will be fairly smaller than PS4 install base by March. This isn't even a contest.
Infamous is something like the first real NextGen Game for the PS4 that isn't a Shooter(KZ) or Driving Game(DriveClub)
People are more interested in something were they can explore.
Titanfall will be someday the next CoD - The 360 Version will hold the One Version back though.
It is probably mostly aimed at the same people who buy CoD and those usually don't play much beside it.
Titanfall(and CoD) aren't reasons right now to get a 500$ Console if they can have the exact same game on the console they already own.
With the sequel going Multiplat it will turn into a sales beast.

you nailed it. the split userbase will kill this game.
if titanfall had been announced for xbone's 2nd or 3rd year i would have a ton more confidence in it. but as a launch window title...
Pre-ordered the collector's edition. Can't wait to get this game.
Playstation = The Beast from the East

Sony + Nintendo = WIN! PS3 + PSV + PS4 + Wii U + 3DS
